[GTALUG] Looks like IBM is planning to eliminate RHEL

[Russell Reiter]

This is sad. But the article is an interesting backgrounder on the internal
chaos thats leading up to this.

"They said that OS development was knocked down to lowest priority,” Ryan
noted. It says it right there. That may explain quite a lot, not just about
RHEL’s direction but also Fedora’s. We see more vendor tie-in/lock-in, more
software patents (monopoly) and not much of real value."
